a) Complete the following methods description using the correct tense for the verb in brackets. (This student is using passive voice rather than any human agents at the request of the instructor.) Student Lab Report Identical tensile test procedures were performed on all test specimens. Each of the metal specimens 1 [have] an indentation near the center to ensure that the fracture point would occur in this region. Tension tests 2 [conduct] as follows. Two pieces of reflective tape 3 [place] approximately 1 inch apart in the center of the specimen where the indentation 4 [locate]. The width and the thickness of the specimen at this location 5 [measure] using a Vernier caliper. Then the specimen 6 [secure] in the MTS Load Frame. A laser extensometer 7 [place] into position to measure the deformation of the specimen. The laser extensometer 8_ __ [use] to measure the original distance between the pieces of reflective tape. The MTS 9 [set] to elongate the specimen one tenth of an inch every minute.
